Rebecca Ferguson says her recent revelation that a former co-star treated her abusively during filming has caused some consternation among her former co-stars.

the Sand Dunes: Part Two And Mission: Impossible The franchise star says she received calls from several of her former co-stars after she went viral in February recalling how a “total idiot” actor yelled at her and made her walk crying off the set. Ferguson’s tale caused a media and Internet frenzy with people trying to determine which of Ferguson’s former co-stars — who include several A-list actors — was the toxic thespian.

Ferguson said in a new interview: Jess Cagle Show On SiriusXM, she “didn’t expect” her comments to start such a guessing game.

“Number one, yeah, I kind of enjoyed catching,” she said. “But what I’ve realized even at my age now – 21 – is that it doesn’t matter. I definitely think I’m more open-minded. I also know where my boundaries are. But the point of the interview wasn’t to find the person – of course, people would be interested in them. But I was Excited by the question, which was a very good question from Josh Smith because the point was: Is there a point in your career where you’ve been treated in a way where you’ve changed your decision – this is how I put it myself – where you want to change, or you’re not going to accept it and that was a clear moment for it? me to work with this person.

She continued, “But I got phone calls from amazing co-stars that I worked with, ‘You understand what I did, right?!'” And I was like, ‘Oh my God. No, I didn’t think so. I mean, it’s not my responsibility, to be honest.’ I don’t really care, you know, ‘You’re great, but my story is my story, and if you’re a good person, don’t worry about it.'”

Cagle then added: “The person was Meryl Stipe, and everyone knows it,” to which Ferguson jokingly replied: “Damn it!”

“I did a movie with a co-star who was a complete idiot — it didn’t matter who it was,” Ferguson said in her original revelations. “I’ll try not to reveal this, but I remember there was a moment, and this human was feeling insecure and angry because this person couldn’t direct the scenes.” “I think I was so weak and uncomfortable that I got yelled at,” she said.

“Because this person was number one on the summons list, there was no safety net for her,” she explained. “So no one had my back. I was crying when I walked off the set,” Ferguson said. “This person would literally look at me in front of the whole crew and say, ‘You call yourself an actor? This is what I should be working with? What is this?’ And I stood there broken.

Ferguson said she felt “scared” after the ordeal and confronted her co-star, noting that this was the first time she spoke about herself as an actress. “I looked at this guy and said, ‘Get out of my group. You can turn off the F. I’m going to work for the tennis ball. I don’t want to see you again.'”

After producers told her she couldn’t do it with “one number” and that person would have to stay on set, Ferguson said: “The person can turn around, and I can act from the back of the head.” And that’s what I did. “I remember being so scared at the time. “I feel like that now when I say that,” she continued. “But I thought it didn’t have to be that way.”

Ferguson quickly ruled out it being either Tom Cruise or Hugh Jackman, but that still leaves a lot of names for people to speculate on.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Emily Blunt have both publicly denied that they were their “goofy” co-stars. Johnson posted on While Blunt denied it was her through a rep statement that said: “Rebecca and Emily are friends and there is nothing between them but love.”
